Unless the Minnesota Vikings leverage future draft picks, selecting a quarterback from the Top 10 of this year’s draft doesn’t make much sense.
The team has just five draft picks, thanks to trades from last year that landed T.J. Hockenson and Akayleb Evans. Then, Minnesota is scheduled to pick at No. 23, a purgatorial spot for quarterbacks in this draft unless Anthony Richardson (Florida) or Will Levis (Kentucky) curiously tumble — like really tumble — down the draft board.
Vikings Could Rely on Lottery Ticket QB in Draft
If general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah does not splash into the Top 10 with a boisterous, tone-setting trade and Richardson + Levis do not fall all the way to No.
